Nahh he's done it against highschool crowds in the past. He's a killer without having to pay homage.

Nice. Ironically though I believe Reggie Miller did as well if memory serves..at the garden no less...United center a bunch too. Pacers in general were a wild bunch with Reg bowing and Chuck Person Morten Andersening some into the crowd. @benhillboy to the 90’s mobile!

...only guy left of the starters is JC.

Just as an aside, after getting roasted following game 2 JC was the model of efficiency moving forward over games 3-5:

16.3 points, 7 rebounds per game

67% from 2pt range

42% from 3pt range

91% from the line

70.3% TS%

Grab that water, 3!!

Can we be honest about something? When it comes to postgame content, the Nix fans swept us.

Why don't any of y'all have a channel like this set up?  Ball dropped, Hawks fans.

What's that?  Why don't I do it?  Heeey, I'm in the idea department not the implementation department.

Ehh Rose could.

I’d actually take Lou or Kevin as the first scoring guards off the bench over him.  Rose’s generalship skills have never been anything to write home about.  All the guys sweared by Lou’s mentorship, Rose is virtually a mute who doesn’t even like to communicate on the floor.  Kevin is a superior 3 point shooter and defender.  And Rose has never been a cog of a sophisticated offense.  Let alone his injury history I just don’t think he’d fit or accept a role close to 3rd string.  You can never have too many dribble drives but that’s really all he brings consistently.

Try as they might - they just CANNOT rattle this young man!  Ice in those Veins!

For such a young team, I was impressed at the teams composure with this kind of stuff.  They did not allow it to throw them off their game plan.

Rose was scoring

I mentioned Okongwu last night, but DeAndre Hunter was a big key in this game.  He was very good.  That kid is just scratching the surface of what he is going to be able to do as a two way player in the NBA.  

This team isn't anywhere close to it's peak yet as well.

We have to keep in mind the Knicks basically gameplanned to take away the lobs leaving Trae pretty much wide open from floater range. If we see Philly try something different it will open up the scoring for both JC and Cap.

Hunter like trae is a playoff player. He plays great d and wont settle for just the three he will get those playoff mid range shots

Hawks are a problem for any defense for sure the scoring is pretty deep.
